Description & Additional Information


Frame cottage, 1 ½ stories, two-bay facade, with T-plan footprint and cross-gabled roof. Foundation concealed by square lattice skirting; cove siding; asphalt shingle roof. One-story, wraparound front porch, with square posts, plain frieze band, exposed rafters, and apparently flat roof. Porch shelters single door, at left, one-over-one window, at right; porch also shelters two one-over-one windows at each side. Second-floor deck with solid-sided rail at sides, square balusters at front. Gable with wide fascia, decorative rafter tails, painted decoration. Shed-roof additions in front of side wings. Side gable decoration matches front gable. Side windows generally one-over-one double-hung wood windows. Shed-roofed rear addition. The visible portions of the cottage date to the late 1990s and later; the portion of this cottage that was included in the 1980 survey, a diminutive two-bay-wide by one-bay-deep cottage with an enclosed one-story front porch, is not visible due to the extensive additions that have been constructed since then at the front and sides. Noncontributing due to extensive alterations that completely hide the historic cottage.
